henry lansbury (sp) is meant to be pretty tidy
it's the way football is going isn't it? i don't think you can slag off arsenal any more than man utd (buying pique etc), chelsea barely have any english youths, liverpool is a spanish youth club, man city have a few slovaks and poles.
atleast arsenal give their players a go and make them play good football unlike most youth football

im with Dachauer, they dont bring the kids up from the ages of 12-15 really well, they go round the biggest teams in the world and sign their under 18s who have yet to be tied down to a contract by the clubs and just pay peanuts in compensation, like they did with Fabregas, the best they had produced themselves was Ashley Cole, is the only real player of note who is the exception, hoyte dont count cos hes shite sidwell, bentley, pennant... shatap.

Gerrard Owen Carragher Fowler the difference with those players and the likes of Bentley and Sidwell is that all of those players listed go given first team football and got runs in the team. I cant even remember Sidwill every playing for Arsenal, it seems to go oddly unoticed but players get better with regular first team football hence why players like Scott Parker and Steve Sidwell played well went to Chelsea and havent quite recovered. David Benalty and Jermain Pennant have the done the opposite and got out and gone where the first team football is. Vital to a players development. As for Nicky Butt, was always going to look pretty naff in Manchester Uniteds midfield which was probably the worlds best when Butt was there (Beckham, Scholes, Keane, Giggs) but he's a quality player who generally goes un-noticed and always did.....even though he is ginger!

Back on topic, I have one more piece of advice.
Find some recent articles/reports and look into what's been going on from that respect.
I suppose just more common sense research stuff, but it's bloody easy to forget these things.
